He correctly identifies the Minimum Wage as the most effective, cheapest and best camouflaged weapon in the whole arsenal of racists.

The nation's first Minimum Wage law was the Davis-Bacon Act of 1931. The reason it was introduced and passed? Contractors were bringing in cheap black labor, transporting them from the South, putting them up in cheap cabins, because they would work for less than whites. The false claim was that it was hurting white labor, because whites couldn't compete for that work.

Something similar happened in old Apartheid South Africa, with native Africans employed in the same manner, paid at way less than most whites for the same work.

So, the Minimum Wage Trick was employed. Once it was law, it was no longer worth it for contractors to bring in black labor. The new Minimum Wage simply put blacks out of work.

It did nothing in particular for white workers; the market would not bear a higher cost of labor to product a still cheap good or service, no matter who did the work. And, it was now illegal to work for less than the minimum wage. So, the work went away, and the imported minority workers went away too.

So the real purpose was simply to eliminate black workers.

It still works, after all these years.

Wages are determined by product price and demand. If the minimum wage goes to $15 per hour, as recommended by Bernie Sanders, and a worker must be paid $15 per hour although his true labor value is only $5 per hour, he is going to be laid off. The free market will not be denied. If a good or service cannot be provided at at the price demanded by the free market, it will not be provided at all. There will either be a radical reduction in employment, or the business will go out of business altogether.

And who is hurt by unemployment at the lowest paid levels? The poor. And who is heavily represented among the poor? Racial Minorities.

So the Communists get to pretend that they are championing the poor and the minorities, while they are actually harming them as much as they possibly can harm them, while still wearing a political smile and looking good.

In the name of helping the poor and feeding the hungry, they increase their poverty and put them on the road to deprivation, hunger and want. (And increasing dependence upon government benefits.)

In advancing their racism, they are cheered on by the victims of it, and by the poorest of the working poor.

Ain't Marxism wonderful? It gets to look good while committing evil.

In 1964, the minimum wage was 5 silver quarters per hour. Today those five silver quarters are worth about $20.00 in melt value. If we had honest money, we would not need to fix the minimum wage. We need to fix the money.Even with the price of silver being manipulated by comex and the central banks, the fix is plain to see. The government keeps printing and spending driving inflation and the currency buys less. The minimum wage is but a further indication of the manipulation of free market principles. We haven't had a free market in over a hundred years.

Silence in the face of evil is speaking. "We've had enough of exhortations to be silent!
Cry out with a hundred thousand tongues. I see that the world is rotten
because of silence." Saint Catherine of Siena

“An
error which is not resisted is approved; a truth which is not defended is
suppressed…. He who does not oppose an evident crime is open to the suspicion of
secret complicity.” – Pope Felix III

“Do not forget your purpose and destiny as God's creatures.
What you are in God's sight is what you are and nothing more”—Justice Clarence Thomas

"Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, then, is the sin committed by the person who claims to have a 'right' to persist in evil-in any sin at all-and who thus rejects redemption." Pope Saint John Paul the GreatDOMINUM ET VIVIFICANTEM

"Not to oppose error is to approve it; and not to defend truth is to suppress it, and, indeed, to neglect to confound evil men-when we can do it-is no less a sin than to encourage them." Pope St. Felix III

If a purposeful violator of the Constitution who is a sworn officer of the governemt is not a domestic enemy of America and a traitor, then
there is no such thing, and the Constitution itself is without meaning,
and America has lost its grounding and its very purpose for being. Anti-American-Court

The Heresy of Chrislam. Those claiming that the “Allah” of Islam’s Qu’ran and Yahweh or God of both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible are one and the same are missing one glaring point: GOD NEVER CONTRADICTS HIMSELF.

Never be lukewarm.Life itself demands passion.He who is indifferent to God has already forfeited his soul.He who is indifferent to politics has already forfeited his liberty.In America, religion is not mere window dressing and citizenship is not a spectator sport.Do not allow our common destiny as a whole people to just happen without your input. Seek the Truth; find the Way; live the Life; please God, and live forever.

"We belong to the Church militant; and She is militant because on earth the powers of darkness are ever restless to encompass Her destruction. Not only in the far-off centuries of the early Church, but down through the ages and in this our day, the enemies of God and Christian civilization make bold to attack the Creator’s supreme dominion and sacrosanct human rights.”--Pope Pius XII

"It is not lawful to take the things of others to give to the poor. It is a sin worthy of punishment, not an act deserving a reward, to give away what belongs to others."--St. Francis of Assisi

Truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it, ignorance
may deride it, but in the end, there it is.—Winston
Churchill

The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who
deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities.—Ayn Rand

Atheist Genesis:

In the beginning there was nothing, and nothing happened to nothing.
And then nothing accidentally exploded and created everything.
And then some bits of everything accidentally encountered other bits of everything and formed some new kinds of everything.
And then some bits of everything accidentally arranged themselves into self-replicating bits of everything.
And then some self-replicating bits of everything accidentally arranged themselves into dinosaurs.

“ … for I have sworn upon
the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind
of man.” wrote Thomas Jefferson in a letter to Dr. Benjamin Rush in
the year of our Lord 1800. The context
involved resistance to any form of Christianity or Deism legally imposing
itself throughout the USA. We must wonder what he might say
about our current government's forced imposition of strict secularism – i.e.,
anti-theism – throughout the USA. I submit that legally enforced secularism of society, like theocracy, like Marxism,
and like Islam, is, precisely, a form of tyranny over the mind of man.Nothing good can come from the religious cleansing of Judaeo-Christian society. Government imposed secularism is just another form of theocracy.
